I took on a few sleeving projects, and it definitely has a learning curve, but I can give you some tips to maybe help you out.
First off- I know you said you know how to get the connectors off but for me getting the pins out of the connectors (24 pin, 8, 6,4- pin) was tough. The little specialty tools that are sold for this purpose for this did not work at all for me. The best tool I found for getting the pins out of the connectors was a "DenTek Dental Pik." Its a blue and white pick that you use for your teeth, sort of similar to what dentists use. The curved head of it allows you to easily push in the "wings" on both sides of the pin so that you can easily pull them out of the connectors. This tool will speed up the process! Here's a link to the actual tool on amazon, you don't need the mirror, but the two tools that come with it will work wonders, trust me.
Second- you need to pick your material. You can use paracord if you're on a budget, and just remove the core. But I found one material that I really liked was PET sleeving, (1/8" for psu sleeving.) The good thing about PET sleeving is it expands and makes it easier to slide past the pins. A bonus is that 1/4 inch PET sleeving is also really really good for SATA cables!
Third- it wouldn't hurt to buy some spare female atx pins and an atx pin crimper, just in case you mess up one of the pins. Plus if you buy a crimper and pins you can cut your psu cables to the length that you need them to help tidy up your cable management. (Or you could even also buy male pins and female connectors and just make sleeved cable extensions too.)
Forth- I would label all your wires with masking tape when you take them out of your connectors. Also drawing a diagram doesn't hurt either. I made a foolish mistake and almost fried my GPU, which was really really dumb.
Fifth- I think cable combs really bring the whole thing together. For one of my builds I drilled out some acrylic to the right diameter so that I could slide the wires through before I put the connectors on. I them sanded them with my dremel to make them rounded. This made for a really nice home-made cable comb.
Lastly- patience is key.. at least for me it was. It took a lot longer than I thought.. but once I was done it looked great. Do some research and figure out if its worth it to you to spend the time and money on doing it yourself. Its a rewarding experience, good luck!
